Is long distance a deal breaker for you?

[cristalriveraa]

Yes

No

[ohshee]

No I think long-distance can be fun sometimes it just depends on who the two people are and what they're looking for I would much rather have a relationship face-to-face because I like to touch slow is soft and look deep into her eyes
And at the same time you can't have that because you met online or something so I don't think there's anything wrong with having that type of relationship and bonding over the internet and letting the person feel exactly what you would be doing if you were in person

[OlderAndWiser]

Depends on the distance and how often we would be able to actually spend time together. If it is only once a year, that's a deal breaker. If it's at least once every two months, I would consider it, but. . . I have enough options that aren't long distance that I would need to see some outstanding qualities in a lady before I agreed to LDR.

[Anonymous]

Never tried it, and never say never, but I think if we already had an established relationship going for a bit, I'd be more open to it, but I don't see the point in essentially waiting for someone long distance if we've only been on like 3 dates. In that case, I wouldn't want to lie and be like, yes, I'll wait because I know I wouldn't.

[DarkCarousel]

For the most part yes. I wouldn’t start a relationship long distance and I know it can be considerably difficult to be away from your significant other. It’s not a good idea for me.

[CaptainOverthink]

The social connection would have to be so strong that it would be enough just to talk and imagine, it would be so super-intellectual that I might as well be asexual and just have some really good friends instead. Otherwise I think for me the relationship would be more of a construct in my mind than the actual thing.

[BCA6010]

A younger me would say, "no not at all! Love acknowledges no obstacles!"

Now, I'd say it's far from ideal, and only manageable if you can still regularly see each other IN PERSON, even if only for short periods. Otherwise, it WILL fall apart without being able to see that light at the end of the tunnel. Personally, I wouldn't commit to a long distance relationship without some kind of confidence that the situation is temporary.

[Lucifer_01]

Listen girl there are 50 50 chances, its all depends on your partner's understandable mentality. And attention is all we have to focus on. if he/she realize you are not giving attention to them. Then they'll get upset and ovethink evry single thing. And focus on that problem even if you came give attention back. And it can lead to trust issues.

[Lorewolf447]

If the personality of the girl is compatible with mine and she's willing to put in as much effort as me to maintain the relationship then I'm more than willing to try. We can work out logistics of living together when we get to that point but the journey there is what matters the most. And it will be as fun, loving and enjoyable as we make it.

[Djaay]

With a long distant beganing relationship , you must quickly materialize it soon and only then is it really worth it completely. The start of mine in 2016 began initially a month and a half later... We married and 5yrs later to today she's right here sitting besides me happily.

[Lost_in_the_Woods]

Two reasons.

1. People lie.
2. If you really loved me you'd let me come see you.

So I don't do that crap anymore.

I tried it, they were all cheaters. Huge waste of time and money.

[Bee-Hatch]

Depends on the distance and duration. Potentially I could fir a story time. Long term? No there's no point, i'd want a partner not a penpal

[Oldtimer2]

Long distance relationships are very hard to nurture. You can't interact with the person and you need to see the other person as nd be with them to some degree for the relationship to flourish. I mean how do you get to know the other person and what they are like. Are they staying committed to you. Are they faithful to you. All these guesting need answers. Also are you gonna be faithful to that person or are you tempted to cheat,?

[Alexismariear22]

No because me and my boyfriend have been apart for a month already and we barley talk because he's grounded and he can't have his phone for the whole summer but we still make each other stuff like bracelets or buy something to give each other when he gets back

[AlexanderAnttila]

Not at all, provided I truly love someone and I see the relationship working out in the long run with details such as where we will move etc. I'm always in it for the long run so I don't do flings, let alone long distance flings.

[SheerKiss3]

Not at all but a long distance relationship requires much more effort.

[ShadowedSoul]

True

[TommyMountainFigure]

Absolutely. I don't believe in long distance relationships. They might work well for others, but I wouldn't entertain the idea.

[Leavesbound]

I've tried that and in the end we broke up because neither of us was willing to relocate and 500 miles is too far away.

[HawkPerception]

I could do it temporarily, but not even a whole year before I get impatient.

[Adam1978]

Yes that distance must be very temporary or it won't work.

[paradiseonearth93]

What’s considered temporary?

[Adam1978]

That there is a plan and it's reasonable. Which usually means no sacrifices on my end.

[ritxi]

It can be a deal breaker depending of the distance and how we meet at first, but it isn't always a deal breaker for me.

[Notfabricated]

I've seen it work, but only when they Skype everyday and then occasionally took trips to see each other with hopes and plans to be with each other some day. Thats the only thing I can get with.

[Inexpensivefurniture]

Not if it's temporary. But if it's a regular or permanent thing, yes it's a deal breaker.

[Medhat-M]

I haven't tried it.. But it seems not practical... You're just in love with someone's voice and images?

[Dchrls78104]

If the two individuals in a "relationship" cannot actually meet and converse in person, there is no relationship.

[UnknownGagsUser]

Yes in longer period of time, both will actually grow apart.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Long distance isn't a deal breaker if two people want something to work then it wil you just have to want it and be willing to put in the work

[Anonymous]

In my current stage of life, I’m not in a rush to have physical touch or anything, so I could yeah.

[ShadowedSoul]

Good girl

[Tellme]

I think it would depend on the circumstances. But certainly much more difficult than a normal relationship.

[Iron_Man]

I’ve already had that before worked out well why have it again

[Den1971]

I'm in one now. She lives 100 miles away. Not far but still

[n0on3ask3d]

Long distance is a deal breaker if it has been more than 3 months and you still haven't met.

[Adam_West]

yes.
most of my relations has been fucked up coz of that

[paradiseonearth93]

Since youve had experience i was wondering if I could get your opinion on a situation where you met someone but they had to move for awhile, is it better to wait until you guys live close again to have a relationship or try a LDR?

[Adam_West]

@paradiseonearth93 LDR is never good. Get rid of that understanding.

[paradiseonearth93]

Haha ok. I’ve never tried it so I don’t know. So it’s better to not try it

[Adam_West]

@paradiseonearth93 because, think about it. Love is something you have to feel with all your five senses.

[paradiseonearth93]

Very true

[Adam_West]

@paradiseonearth93 fuck yeah babe!

[Joshua0213]

Nah, although she'd have to be perfect for me to actually consider it.

[innerman]

Late night mares have always killed my long distance relationships 😂

[SmokinAces2000]

I personally never tried it but I don’t imagine it would be something that I’d be interested in

[TallAnon]

I thought it wouldn't be for a couple of years, but yes it is.

[Prideful]

Been in two, both show me a magical boyfriend after a few weeks.

[jon28805]

It's not a deal breaker, but I think it would be hard to be in a long distance relationship.

[Anonymous]

when starting yes it is. After we become a couple, no it is not.

[SpiderManFan2002]

Not at all if I really love him

[exitseven]

After trying it I would give it a hard pass.

[MLGbreezy]

Yes way to much effort for very little return

[ThePolishKnight37]

It is hard but can be done.

[Starwitch23]

Yes, I can't do it and I don't want to do it.

[Aakash_Hangargi]

Not having time to meet or greet

[pink_and_inlove]

Yes it would be too hard for me

[Wise4myage]

Yes, it would be for me.

[Shihab91]

not 100% but i don't prefer it

[Teddybear12]

Yes… learned from experience

[MudRucker]

You can't be intimate on Skype

[MCheetah]

No, not for me.

[JesseJayNeak]

Tried it before. Didn't end well

[msc545]

No, I like traveling

[Anonymous]

Maybe depends on who is willing to move

[Anonymous]

Depends if it's a temporary thing or not

[Anonymous]

I mean after all, you’d want to cuddle, right?

[Uptowngirl88]

Yep...

[legalboxers]

been in many LDRs

[Luckycharms12]

It can be very hard

[SpaceGalaxy]

no i can travel

[voilavoilaa]

As of right now, yes

[Smf1989]

No it is not

[Slim57]

Yes..

[Anonymous]

Definitely
